Running a staggered set-up will affect the differential and drivetrain of on awd. You can run a staggered set-up with different "width" but the "same" size offset wheels , and also you would have to use a tire calculator to run the right size tires that will balance the wheel on all 4 corners. This has been discuss on the lexus forum also, as i've been looking for a wheel/tire set-up to run on my 08 AWD Lexus is250. Hope that helps.

Here's the link to the Lexus Forum;

Running a staggered setup is a big no no. You will fund out the hard way.

just make sure the height of the combo is even.

people run wider fronts on awd's at times for better turn in while road racing.

i ran staggered offsets at even heights on my gsx for over a year before i sold it to the next owner with no issues.

I appreciate the advice of running staggered wheels guys. A buddy of mine wanted to sell then after he had them for less than a year an purchased them brand new. He made me an offer i wasnt going to pass up. Its a good thing im away at work alot in the oilfields and hardly drive it. I still got my enkie rpf1s 18x9.5 all around. I cd just put the a on the Gen im looking to get. Again thanks cor the heads up. Ill probly just leave the advans on in the garage. Keep up this awsome thread fellas.
